Semester Review

Coming in to Senior Lit. and Comp. I was not sure to expect and how much of a "typical" Language Arts class it was going to be. Language Arts as always been a strong class for me, although my grammar is terrible and due to my dyslexia, my spelling horrific, I understand the concepts and I enjoy analyzing writing.  I have , then, always passed L.A with flying colors but I have found here in my first semester of senior Lit. and Comp., that I am having to push myself and work hard to the grades that I want. I have seen my writing really improve due to this, and I think I am on a good road to how writing is going to be on college. But more then just seeing my writing skill's change I have found that this class has forced me to reconsider my own ideals and thoughts. When reading the Laramie Project I found that I was fighting against myself in what I believe about Matthew Shepard's murdered and about hate crimes, and some of my emotionally beliefs in my memoir.  Even though all the projects that we have done on our own, on our own novels, and topics has helped my writing skills to grow, I am looking forward to having more classroom discussions and analyzing in class next semester with Ceremony.
